A California man who lost his wallet more than 40 years ago finally got it back when workers fixing a movie theater discovered the billfold stuck in a radiator.
"I remember losing it," 70-year-old Epigmenio Sanchez said. "I just don't remember where."
The wallet still had family photos, old pay stubs and a couple of department store charge cards he had not seen in more than 40 years.

His birth certificate also was there.
The only thing not in the wallet was money - but Sanchez said he cannot remember whether he had cash when the wallet went missing.
Sanchez said he used to go to the movies with his wife, Tillie.
"We wanted to get away from the kids for a while," Tillie Sanchez said. "That was our little escape."
Epigmenio Sanchez said he never expected to see the wallet again. "It brings back good memories."
